What I love about dentistry: I love to meet all the families and children. I love the new technology in dentistry that allows us to offer a wider range of services to our patients. It makes me feel good when someone has a problem or need and we can easily take care of it and make a positive difference in their lives.

Background: I grew up in Eastern NC in the small town of Aurora which is in Beaufort County. I have two brothers (one older and one younger) and everyone works in the family business back at home. Growing up in a small town our parents kept us very busy either working, playing sports or scouting. My brothers and I all played baseball and football. Baseball was our passion in sports and we played in various leagues most of the year. Both of my brothers graduated from East Carolina University with degrees in Industrial Distribution and Logistics. We all also participated in scouts where I earned the rank of Eagle Scout by the age of 13. Scouting was one of the best experiences of my life and taught me values that I hold dear to this day.

Achievements: Notary of Public in 2010; Flight Attendant Training U.S. Airways; and Certified Cardiovascular Pulmonary Resuscitation and Automated External Defibrillator

What she loves about dentistry: I love everything about dentistry. I love learning and experiencing new things and Dentistry is an ever changing environment. I love seeing the parents bring their little ones in for their very first visit to seeing the long term patients that come faithfully every six months. My favorite part of this profession is working with the patient; from the phone, to the minute they walk in the door, till they leave the office. Our patients and staff are "The Cream of the Crop".

Personal Information: I was born in Pikeville, Kentucky where my Dad was a grocery store manager for Kroger and my Mom was a Registered Nurse at the local Hospital. We were then transferred to Logan, West Virginia when I was five years old. Finally, we were transferred to Melbourne, Florida where I was raised. I met my husband in High School; we graduated and went our separate ways. I went to college and he joined the USMC in 1996. After college, I became a flight attendant with U.S. Airways. Following the attacks of 9/11, I lost my position as a flight attendant. I then realized that God had more in store for me. He wanted me to pursue my original plan in the dental field. I received a position as Office Administrator in Florida and worked that position until I reconnected with my husband and he asked me to move to North Carolina. I was hired with Dr. Wilson and Dr. Ginny in 2004. I married my marine and in 2004, we gave birth to our first and only child, Peyton. It is amazing how one little person can bring so much pride and joy into our lives. We also have four dogs, one pug named Mason, and three yorkies named Bella, Baxter, and Bailey. They are our other children. My Motto: LIVE life to its fullest, LAUGH as much as you can, no one can dislike a smile, LOVE as much as your heart will let you, it should be for eternity.

What She Loves About Dentistry: I love meeting and getting to know our patients and helping them receive the quality care that they deserve. Dentistry is an ever evolving field with new research and techniques; I love learning something new about dentistry every day.

Personal Information: I was born in San Diego, California but moved around a lot since my dad was in the Navy. My husband, Justin, is in the Marine Corps and we moved to the area in 2013. We have 2 cats named Cookie and Jingles and a dog named Chance.

What she loves about dentistry: The personal bonds and relationships you develop with your patients are so wonderful. You feel so touched when they come in and ask about your children, the knowledge that you have seen a lot of children grow up and become adults. Those adult patients now are bringing their children to us for care too. I love that dentistry is a profession where I am continuously learning new products and techniques through continuing education that in turn will help my patients in their dental care.

Personal Information: I was born in Lonoke, a small town 20 miles from Little Rock, Arkansas. During my last 2 years of High School I worked after school and on Saturdays for one of the two dentists in our little town. I enjoyed the work so much that when I graduated I started working for an Orthodontist for two years as I continued my education in dentistry. I realized my passion was in general dentistry after getting my CDA and worked in Little Rock for 20 years' before moving to NC and marrying my husband of 20 years. Since, we have been blessed with a beautiful daughter that is now 17 years old. I consider the people in our dental office my second family.

What She Loves About Dentistry: I enjoy meeting our new patients and learning all about them. Every patient is unique and I love to watch their confidence grow as they hav completed their treatment.

Personal Information: I was working and raised in Suffolk, Virginia, where I lived for 27 years. I recently moved to Jacksonville with my husband who is in the Navy. I have a little boy named Brayden, another one on the way, and a fur baby named Bentley.

What You Love about Dentistry:The professional and personal relationships which are created. Dentistry has been my career choice since I was a thirteen year old girl. At the time, I really didn't know what was in store for me or how much I would truly love my career. Ultimately my desire to help people remained true, what I didn't realize was how important these people and their families would be to me. Yes I help them in maintaining optimal dental health, but in the 24 years I have been a Dental professional, many people have touched my life. I can only hope that I too have impacted their lives, not only through educating them about their oral health but trough shared interaction.

Personal Information: I have been a resident of North Carolina since November 1990. I am the proud mother of two teenage daughters. They are the love of my life and I can only hope that they will find great pride and enjoyment in whatever career paths they choose.

What She Loves About Dentistry: I love getting to know my patients and hearing their life stories. I love being a part of a medical field that has a continuous relationship with patients year after year. I started my career in dentistry while I was in high school. After school, I would work in the evenings at an endodontic office. My boss at that time was a phenomenal mentor. She encouraged me to go as far as possible with my dental education. As the Marine Corps moved us across the country, I worked as a dental assistant in various offices such as general, endodontics, and pediatric dentistry. We are currently stationed in Jacksonville where I was so fortunate to find Family Dental Care and become part of their team.

Personal Information: I was raised in South Carolina and after graduating from high school, I married my high school sweetheart. He joined the Marine Corps and we have been moving coast to coast since 1999. We have two wonderful children and our precious English Bulldog Daisy Lou.
